• A phylogeny reconstruction of the Dendrophylliidae (Cnidaria, Scleractinia) based on molecular and micromorphological criteria, and its ecological implications (2014, background): “…of scleractinian corals showing that the macromorphological classification in suborders and families is unreliable (Romano & Palumbi 1996; Romano & Cairns 2000; Chen et al. 2002; Fukami et al. 2004, 2008; Le GoffVitry et al. 2004; Kitahara et al. 2010, 2012a,b; Huang et al. 2011;…”

• The evolution of modern corals and their early history (2003, background): “Stolarski and Roniewicz (2001) presented a very thorough review of the various traditional suborders of Scleractinia and a discussion of their evolutionary relationships and classification.”
• Analysis of complete mitochondrial DNA sequences of three members of the Montastraea annularis coral species complex (Cnidaria, Anthozoa, Scleractinia) (2005, background): “2002) [a distantly related coral (Romano and Palumbi 1996, 1997; Romano and Cairns 2000; Veron 2000; Chen et al. 2002)], the sea anemone Metridium senile (Beagley et al.”
• Three-dimensional micro- and nanostructural characteristics of the scleractinian coral skeleton: A biocalcification proxy (2003, background): “Conversely, molecular data strongly support paraphyly of caryophylliinans since their various groups are dispersed along the tree topology (Romano and Cairns 2000; Cuif et. al 2003).”
• Patterns of septal biomineralization in Scleractinia compared with their 28S rRNA phylogeny: a dual approach for a new taxonomic framework (2003, background): “Interestingly, Romano & Palumbi (1996), then Romano & Cairns (2000), found these same groupings from a different source of data, the mitochondrial 16S rDNA.”
• The new systematics of scleractinia: Integrating molecular and morphological evidence (2016, background): “…“faviid” is that of Leptastrea, which has been consistently shown as closely related to Fungiidae based on different markers (Romano and Palumbi 1996; Romano and Cairns 2000; Fukami et al. 2008; Kitahara et al. 2010b) despite striking differences in morphology between this genus and any of the…”
• Experimental biology of coral reef ecosystems (2004, background): “…corals have been present since the mid-Triassic (Veron, 1995) and based on mitochondrial 16S rDNA, two distinct clades of scleractinian families appear to have diverged before the appearance of modern scleractinian taxa in the fossil record (Romano and Palumbi, 1996; Romano and Cairns, 2000).”
• Biomineralization and Evolutionary History (2003, unknown): “…the end of the Permian, and the scleractinian corals that would rise to ecological prominence in Mesozoic and Cenozoic ecosystems appear only in Middle Triassic rocks (Stanley 2003), apparently evolving carbonate skeletons de novo in at least two distinct actinarian stocks (Romano and Cairns 2000).”
